HATTIE’S STORY

CITROEN x THE BIG ISSUE


The second in a series of short doc’s exploring the lives of The Big Issue staff and vendors; this time told through the eyes of Bristol-based manager, Hattie.

While having only one shoot day to capture our entire film (and battling against the typical British weather), most of the work came
in prep; building trust with Hattie, understanding her short journey with The Big Issue, and bringing together a story that she felt comfortable enough to share.

Part of a series of videos with over 500k view on socials, becoming
Big Issue’s most popular videos, our work went beyond client expectations.

Press: ‘Our goal is to challenge negative perceptions’
